Delrand' Shareholders Approve the Previously Announced Proposed Change of Business and Concurrent Private Placement and Elect Directors

TORONTO, Dec. 8, 2014 - Delrand Resources Limited (Delrand) (TSX:DRN) (JSE:DRN) announced today that at an annual and special meeting of shareholders held earlier today (the Meeting), Delrand's shareholders approved the previously announced change of business transaction and concurrent private placement.

As previously announced on September 15, 2014, Delrand entered into a share exchange agreement (the Exchange Agreement) pursuant to which Delrand has agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of VoiceTrust Holding Inc. (VoiceTrust), a privately-held global provider of voice biometrics solutions based in Toronto, from VoiceTrust Holding B.V., an indirect subsidiary of Ramphastos Participaties Coöperatief U.A. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, Delrand will acquire VoiceTrust for aggregate consideration of CDN$27,000,000 to be paid by the issuance of up to 36,565,839 common shares in the capital of Delrand, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances (the Acquisition). Concurrently with the closing of the Acquisition, Delrand proposes to complete a private placement by the issuance of 22,660,000 common shares in the capital of Delrand (the Private Placement and, together with the Acquisition, the Transactions) in connection with a subscription receipt offering by Delrand, or such other entity as may be agreed upon.

The Acquisition constitutes a "change of business" within the meaning of the policies of the Toronto Stock Exchange (the Exchange) and, accordingly, Delrand has applied to the Exchange for acceptance of the Acquisition. Delrand has also applied to the Exchange for acceptance of the Private Placement. On November 14, 2014, Delrand announced it was granted conditional approval by the Exchange for the listing of the common shares of Delrand issuable in connection with the Transactions. The net proceeds of the Private Placement are intended to be used to fund the operations of VoiceTrust following closing.

At the Meeting, Delrand's shareholders also approved, among other things, separate resolutions: (1) authorizing Delrand to change its name to "VoiceTrust Biometrics Inc.", or such other name as may be approved by Delrand's board of directors and the applicable regulatory authorities; (2) authorizing Delrand to dispose of Delrand's wholly-owned subsidiary, Delrand Resources Congo SPRL, to an arm's length purchaser (the Asset Disposition) concurrently with the completion of the Transactions; (3) authorizing a reduction in Delrand's stated capital for the common shares in the capital of Delrand by an aggregate of CDN $123,542,174; and (4) authorizing the issuance of up to 3,400,000 stock options as employment inducement options to Delrand's proposed new chief executive officer, chief financial officer and chief operating officer.
